Welcome to Gary Witheford's website which details his work within the racing industry.  For those of you wishing to find out about his services within the private sector, please visit our new sister site at www.garywitheford.org.uk by following any of the links on this site.

Gary has developed a unique insight into the psychology of the horse, he is passionate about his work with all types of horses and has created his own unique techniques to deal with equine traits and behavioural issues in a shorter period of time than it usually takes using more traditional methods. 

His training methods are based on the observation of horses in the wild and the firm belief of everyone who works with Gary is that no matter what problem the horse brings with it, there is always a possibility of change and the chance of a better life for both horse and owner.

He does not resort to beating, shouting or abuse, but uses calmer, straightforward methods that allow the horse to quickly learn and respond in the light of their own natural behavioural patterns.  In this way they learn to accept human control as quickly as possible and are ready to begin their work in a much shorter space of time.

Craig Witheford has definitely followed in his father's footsteps and has discarded his mantle as "The Apprentice" having inherited the same skills and approach to his work.
